IMHO- 7"x15" or 16" Look really great on an early car, on all four corners.

Back when the early cars were much newer, if your car didn't have 7x15'sx4 corners it was not kewl. You needed a pair of H-1's as well.

Matt, On my '69 I have 16x6........205x55x16 on all four. Looks great and no rubbing. The 215's in the rear will rub.
Don't flare your car.

I have 16x6 Fuchs at all corners w/ 205/55 SO2s.

Rears are fine w/ 1.5 degrees negative camber - fronts rub at front fender w/ 1.1 degrees negative camber and postive caster set at 5.2 degrees!

I think Anderson recommends 15x7 at all corners w/ 205/55 tires (tyres!).

My goal is to have 4 15x7 911R wheels w/ an R compound 205/55 tire.

I have 2 mint 6 x 16 with full polished rims to sell. I recently picked up 7" for the front to go with my rear 8".
